depending on how snug those slats are, I'd be afraid of Hubby wrenching a joint out. But then, people with joints on bungee cords learn what not to do.
Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm pretty sure that one of my classrooms was close to 90 degrees today. I was feeling sick by the time that class was over.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sorry, Scrappy.
Both of the local IT guys were in my office this morning for close to two hours, trying to fix the library catalog program.
It's still broken, but we did manage to prove conclusively that I am allergic to the aftershave/cologne one of them was slathered in.

Sorry to hear about the cat, Scrappy.
I found one of the half-grown alley cats from the clowder that lives behind my building dead in a parking lot last week, a day after waking it up with some food and noticing that it uncharacteristically didn't run away. It's a shame, but I wasn't really broken up since the ones I'm attached to (two that let me pet them and another that seems headed that way) are all fine.

Scrappy, I am so sorry to hear about Zorro. Poor, sweet kitty.
Hil, that sounds miserable. Is the weather supposed to break? Can you call building maintenance, and request the windows be opened, or a fan brought in?
My go-to red (Louis Jadot Beaujolais-Villages)has been creeping up in price; it was about $8 in the late 90's, but now it about $15. And I also am fine with Prosecco, though I've had Veuve Cliquot for NYE and such, courtesy of friends working in the wine biz.
That's also how I had the best wine ever -- a bottle of $80 Amarone which was velvety, chocolate and berries and leather and OMG.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Hil,
you need to talk to someone about that. I would be close to passing out. I think OSHA actually has a part on their Web site about this.
Scrappy,
oh man. what a bummer.
Theo, I'm glad all is well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I definitely could not work in a room with no a/c OR windows.
